Agriculture · soft fruit, vegetables and fruit

The season lasts four months. The paperwork cannot last all year.

Fertilisers, plant protection products, substrate, punnets, diesel, transport notes, the seasonal team’s payslips — and the producer organisation’s settlement statement. DocBridge reads all of it for what it is and files it under farm expense categories, with the SNC account underneath.

From the same company that makes FarmUp, used on real farms.

Accounts from the horticulture and fruit model, created with the farm’s CAE.

The document nobody handles well

A producer organisation’s settlement is not an invoice.

Growers who sell through a producer organisation do not issue an invoice for each delivery: they receive a settlement, with the fruit on one side and the deductions for packaging, transport and cold storage on the other. The one who receives it is the grower — but the one who issues it is the organisation.

A generic invoice reader sees the header, concludes that the organisation is the supplier and treats the settlement as a purchase — the money coming in shows up in the season’s expenses.

DocBridge has a dedicated document type for this. It recognises the settlement, understands that the grower is the recipient, and routes it to the grower’s company.

Without DocBridge

Settlement treated as a purchase invoice

The organisation appears as a supplier, and what the season earned is added to what it cost. Someone notices months later — or nobody does.

With DocBridge

Settlement recognised, kept out of purchases

It comes in as a grower settlement, in the recipient’s company. It does not count as a purchase, nor in the margin, nor as a debt to suppliers.

What reaches a farm

Each of these papers is read for what it is.

Fertilisers and plant protection products

Invoices with dozens of lines. Each line is read and classified: fertiliser does not end up in the same account as plant protection products.

Delivery and transport notes

They travel with the fruit and arrive before the invoice. They are recognised as delivery notes, and not posted as if they were invoices.

Diesel receipts

The pump receipt, photographed on the spot. The ISP (fuel tax) is handled separately, and a hard-to-read receipt is re-read with an enhanced image.

Substrate, plastic and packaging

Substrates and soils, film, crates and pallets. Farm expense categories, not general chart-of-accounts entries.

Seasonal payslips

Dozens a month at peak season. A validated payslip goes up to the obligations dashboard on its own — nobody re-enters it.

Social Security and IVA payment slips

With the deadline up front and the payment reference. They stay on the obligations dashboard until they are paid, with the proof of payment attached.

In the field

Whoever has the paper in hand photographs it there.

The diesel receipt is photographed at the pump. The delivery note is photographed when the lorry leaves. Nobody keeps papers in the glovebox until Sunday night.

And the app speaks the language of the person using it — eight languages, including Nepali, Hindi, Arabic and Russian. In a soft-fruit season, that is not a detail: it is the difference between the team using the app or not.

The right language for each side

The grower sees fertilisers. The accountant sees the SNC account.

Every line of every invoice gets an expense category in the farm’s language — agricultural inputs, packaging and post-harvest, agricultural services, energy and fuels, machinery. That is how you see where the season’s money went.

Underneath, without anyone having to look at it, sits the SNC account the accountant needs. The same line serves both.

The expense categories come from the farm’s CAE: there are five agricultural models — horticulture and fruit, viticulture, livestock, mixed farming and agro-industry.

Expense categories of the agricultural model

  • Agricultural inputs
  • Packaging and post-harvest
  • Agricultural services
  • Energy and fuels
  • Machinery and equipment
  • Temporary agency labour
  • External supplies and services
  • Other expenses

Expense categories and accounts can be changed whenever you like.

What people ask us

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to change anything on the farm?

No. Suppliers keep sending to where they already send, and the team keeps bringing in the paper. What changes is that nobody has to type it any more.

Does my accountant have to use this?

No. They receive the documents already read and organised — and, if they work with Centralgest, posted directly. If they use it too, they stop asking you for papers by email.

What if the season brings a peak in documents?

On paid plans, nothing stops mid-month: documents above what is included are counted separately. See pricing

Where are the documents kept?

In the DocBridge archive, isolated per company and stored on servers in the European Union, searchable by supplier, date and type.

Bring a week’s worth of season documents.

We show you DocBridge reading them — grower settlements, delivery notes and diesel receipts included — before any commitment.
